Cometic Ford 2.3L 4CYL 3.83in 97mm Bore .098 inch MLS Head Gasket

This Cometic Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket is what you get when you need a solid seal for your Ford 2.3L engine. It's built with multiple layers of stainless steel, giving it the strength to handle high-output engines. The outer layers are coated with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material that can handle tough sealing jobs and works well with different head and block materials, whether you're pairing aluminum heads with an aluminum block or cast iron block. This gasket is designed to provide maximum sealing performance without needing any extra sealants.

The multi-layer design not only adds strength but also allows the gasket to rebound and resist corrosion, which is important for long-term reliability. The center layer is stainless steel and can be varied to achieve different thicknesses, like the .098 inch compressed thickness on this particular gasket. This gasket fits a range of Ford vehicles, including models like the Ford Ranger, Ford Mustang, and Ford Aerostar, making it a versatile option for many 2.3L applications.
